Harlequin's Dad is former software geek turned manager, happily married husband and father of Harlequin, Redmond resident and beer drinker. He earned the moniker "Zacksdad" in a D&D campaign years ago at the no longer extant Coyote Games store in Redmond (and hence the current moniker). These days he prefers "casual" games like Settlers of Catan, Condotiere, Ticket to Ride and card games like Pinochle, Cribbage, Hearts and Spades. If he's not doing any of those things on a given weekend, you might find him sailing Puget Sound or reading a book.
Lives less than a mile from the 2008-07-03 47 -122 location. Is probably older than you (4th oldest geohasher as of 2008-08-27).

- 36.729137°, -122.17901° in the Santa Cruz, California graticule. It is going to be a tough since the Santa Cruz graticule is over 95% Pacific Ocean and these coordinates are 15 miles from the nearest land (the Monterey peninsula).
